Did you experience a buyer that did not feel as rough a home inspection by a licensed professional is necessary? Most often you come across this situation when new construction is involved, or when “Uncle Tom knows everything about houses.”
Clearly, despite the good objectives of a friend or relative, unless they are a licensed home inspector there are several issues that can overlooked thereby amplifying the chances of some sort of repair or system breakdown in the near future.
Even with recent construction, items can be unintentionally missed by the contractor. Some heard of a new home that had carpenter ants from the beginning. It appears that the ants were delivered with the lumber package.
I do suggest a home inspection or i would suggest at the very least get the buyer a waiver signed for the inspection if they don’t want to pay for one. I also promote sellers to have an inspection done for the reason of knowing what the issues are and getting them fixed makes for the rest of the nights after closing.
